Because I had to clarify what the numbers meant. This is for the creation of a mat file for a package that will be sold.

Like anything else, if I learn what the numbers mean, and can look at them and understand what Im looking at, my method of putting together mat files will be less than 2 minutes, verses hours.

I am not looking to render or create artwork. I am looking to learn to read what i am looking at in a mat file. I dont see anything wrong with that personally.

If I create a black outfit and want a 'teal tint' to the texture in the front, i can use my editor to quickly achieve this, rather than opening poser, loading all my items, waiting for the material room to load, finding the right settings , then try to decipher which is which.

Like learning html code, its quicker to open something in an editor and make a quick change than 'trying different things until you achieve the right results.'

This is just a notion, but i'm guessing the more I learn about what I'm looking at, the more I can become experienced in using poser, creating products that have their own look and charm, and do well at rendo, but it's just a notion.

Again, I dont see the problem with asking for help in something I'd like to learn.

Ever stop to think, and forget to start again?
